Liu certainly had a 'progressive agenda' and used some heavy handed negative language about Alito, and then Carter Phillips to his right...ate his lunch.
GOODWIN LIU
I am honored to be nominated for the Board. I grew up in Northern California, attending public school in Sacramento before going to college at Stanford. After law school, I spent several years in Washington, including one year clerking for one of the ACLUs finest, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, another year in the Clinton Administration working on civil rights and K-12 policy in the U.S. Department of Education, and two years in an appellate litigation practice. Now in my second year on the Boalt faculty, I am eager to bring to the ACLU what I bring to my teaching and research: a passion for civil rights, broad expertise in constitutional law, and a commitment to liberty and opportunity for the dissenters and disadvantaged in our society.
